    @jpawgmafia Downloading the STATE logos off of AOL online and printing them up and putting them in my room. That aged the **** out of me.

    @AOL Poor lady she tried to help. Maybe if she would have helped the student pay they would have left her alone. Very sad.🙁

    Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL I agree. The problem is a lot of people either can't afford or have no room to store clothes. Very sad.😐

    AOL! TERRIBLE! It was to mean “America On Line”! Could not keep a tech advisor complete a help request on line to resolve problems with my email. Jess said “hello, what seems to be the problem” then disappeared and I had to pay to get him on line to start! VERIZON wake up please!

    I tried to customize my Slack color scheme and it’s nothing short of appalling. Come to think of it, I never really was good at AOL color profiles, either.

    @joshelman AOL was a literal life changer for me. That dial up sound may be awful but even to this day it makes me want to go back a little

    @stephendelong78 @CALWDA @JulieSuCA @CA_EDD #CAEDD Is a complete disaster. INCOMPETENCE. It’s like as if someone who has dial-up Internet, an AOL email account and thinks ctrl+alt+delete is tech support is running the IT programming Dept. @CA_EDD The “pending” glitches and lack of cust. service needs to end ! PUA, PEUC>PAY

    I straight called AOL tech support at one point to ask them how to open a “dot ZIP” file.

    @julielerman @AOL My dad asked me once why his computer was so slow. He said he had bought some software from Nigeria for a great deal that was suppose to speed it up.

  • rod4p
    Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL I feel bad for her. This guy wanted to cheat on his wife [ she didn't know he was married ] Then wanted to get rid of the problem when he was to dumb to use protection. 😐

    My mom controlled our AOL account when I was about 13 and would come into my room to sign me in. So, I created an entirely fake AOL login flow in Visual Basic and had her sign me in once to capture the password. Old school phishing.

    @brockpierson No never heard of it. I used yahoo, sbcyahoo , aol, and I think that's all they had back in my days lol

    @neglbaren @freedom_007__ If you know horses all you need to do is look at the horses. William has light hands and his horses are soft. Harry’s are a knot of tension as he rips their mouths and slams his spurs in them. First hand knowledge here. I will never forget him ripping on those horses. He is a horrible human. Too bad old AOL message boards are gone there were a bunch of us who volunteered and we all were appalled.

    EVERY BUBBLE HAD ONE FINAL TRADE THIS IS OURS The most overvalued market in 100 years and retail is still buying every dip This pattern has preceded every major crash in modern history not most of them, all of them Dot-com: the internet was real Nasdaq lost 78% Housing: real estate was real $8 trillion disappeared AI: the technology is real just like the others were The technology being real has never once stopped the bubble from bursting SpaceX just entered at $2.35 trillion with 95% of shares still locked and a wall of insider supply hitting the market on a fixed schedule starting in August Every bubble in history had one final moment the trade so exciting it pulled the last of the retail money in right before the whole structure collapsed Dot-com had AOL Housing had mortgage-backed securities AI has SpaceX Same ending. Different props. Turn notifications on - if you're not following yet, you'll understand why that was a mistake later

    I think OpenAI and Anthropic might be the CompuServe and AOL of the AI era. Does anyone actually think Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Apple, Meta, Oracle, IBM, X/Twitter, and all of the other big tech companies will just allow these 2 badly run startups to capture the AI market? OpenAI and Anthropic don't have a moat or sustainable competitive advantage. To win they have to not only develop a moat but penetrate some of the most fortified moats. Model quality isn't a moat. Kimi, Grok, Deepseek proved that. Inference will become a commodity utility that requires massive CapEx that neither can finance. Interface is where the moat is the weakest. OpenAI and Anthropic do not own the apps or the OS. The OS and apps are owned by parties who view OpenAI or Anthropic as threats. The OS and apps are where AI choice happens. As if that is not grim enough, AI sovereignty will become an issue. Consumers will want their iCloud data to stay in iCloud, their OneDrive data to stay in OneDrive, etc. Enterprise customers will want AI from their cloud providers to reduce egress and for performance + IP reasons. It is honestly hard to imagine a world where OpenAI and Anthropic survive as they are. They will either morph into companies with entirely different value offerings or die like Compuserve and AOL.

    If anyone is claiming to be my woman in another place, they are just lying because.. No... I never do long distance relationships.. That's been a rule for me since AOL messenger...

    I’m sure this will sound like the roar of a dinosaur, but as a (remaining) AOL user, I had a serious tech issue of access, called them, they answered, and a very helpful, patient human walked me through a reprogramming procedure with one of my computers to restore access. Easy

    @CZOctober25 @SarahSevans2000 I never had a waterbed or AOL either but the rest of them I had or used at one point. My first Internet was dial up and it drove people crazy. Because I had only one phone line and people would try to call me on the phone and the line was always busy because I was on the Internet

    @FullMetalTrav I was the architect of the AOL help page deployment on the vendor side for 10 or so years. I optimized and redeployed the entire stack more than one time. It took around 52 servers to handle the traffic spikes and was split between 2 data centers w/ failover.
